Rickey.org Office Pool Rule Change

From the guys running FunOfficePools:

American Idol Top 36 pools now limit the maximum points you can put on any one contestant to 7 points until the Top 12 are announced.

Why we made the change? We got a lot of feedback that the first week was just too easy, and it proved out in the voting. 63% of the points were placed on one contestant -- and we were already seeing a similar pattern for Week 2. After discussing the options with a few pool commissioners we decided to use a mechanism we had used last year with the Top 24 to limit the max points per contestant. We think it adds to the fun since it forces you to move your points around to at least 3 different people. Once the Top 12 begins, those limitations will be removed and you will be able to put points anywhere you want.

Right now, there are 47 people sharing first place, and 408 people got 22 points or more. LOL
